The clean lines and straight forward simplistic design of the mid-century movement inspired us to create accessories in that style for todays busy lifestyles. After seaching for the right material, we finally settled on a rich green slate that is from the region of Bihar in northern India near the border with Nepal. The simple designs took on a new life with this stunning stone, especially after the craftsmen expertly cut and polished each piece by hand. This Bihar Mid-Century Slanted Vase has simple lines and curves, but with the incredible texture and depth of green slate it takes it to a new level that stands alone.
